I am trying to research my family history and am hoping someone here
on the JewishGen Discussion Group can help.

I have record of Joseph Morrison, my great grandfather, born in Russia
in 1877. He arrived in England somewhere around 1900 with his wife
Becky ((Bailee) Stern. They then separately moved to Boston then to
Brooklyn.

Joseph is buried at Montefiore Cemetery in the David Horodoker lodge.

See attached for all of the details I have uncovered so far.

I am still trying to find the family's original last name and any
other info about the town Joseph came >from and any other family
information. Any suggestions would be very helpful.

Joseph Morrison was born on December 29, 1877, in Russia. He had two
sons and three daughters with Rebecca (Becky, Bailee) Stern (Stared )
between 1900 and 1910. He moved alone >from England to Boston where the
rest of the family joined later. He worked as a tailor for the
Feinbaum Company. He died on July 15, 1923, in Brooklyn, New York, at
the age of 45, and was buried in Montefiore Cemetery in Springfield
Gardens, New York.
